Video: A look ahead at MMA's top 10 heavyweights prior to UFC 161

Saturday’s UFC 161 main card features two heavyweight bouts. We take a look a look at the division’s top 10 heading into the event.

The only fighter ranked in the top 10, Roy Nelson, clashes with No. 15 Stipe Miocic at the pay-per-view event in Winnipeg. Nelson looks for his fourth straight win, though UFC President Dana White said a title shot isn’t on the line for “Big Country.”

Also on the UFC 161 card, honorable mention Shawn Jordan looks to crack the top 15 with a win over fellow striker Pat Barry.

A total of 26 fighters got their chance to shine on Saturday as part of UFC 190 at Rio de Janeiro’s HSBC Arena. Now that UFC 190 is in the books, it’s time to commence MMAjunkie’s “Three Stars” ceremony.
